This article investigates how firms in BRICS economies respond to economic policy uncertainty throughmergers and acquisitions (M&A), using a comparative case study approach. Focusing on major transactions in Brazil,Russia, India, China, and South Africa, the study examines how institutional environments, ownership structures, andgovernance arrangements shape corporate consolidation strategies under conditions of policy volatility, geopolitical risk,and regulatory change. The analysis draws on in-depth case reviews of representative M&A transactions, includingstate-influenced restructuring, private-sector consolidation, and cross-border acquisitions. Each case is analysed withinits national institutional context to identify the mechanisms through which uncertainty affects deal motivation, transactiondesign, and post-merger integration. Particular attention is paid to the role of state ownership, compliance constraints,sanctions exposure, and governance capacity in mediating firm responses to uncertainty. The study adopts an institutionaland comparative analytical framework, treating economic policy uncertainty as a structural feature of emerging marketsrather than a temporary shock. By comparing cases across distinct political–economic systems, the article highlights bothcommon adaptation patterns, such as domestic consolidation and strategic restructuring, and country-specific responsesdriven by differences in regulatory regimes and state involvement. The novelty of the article lies in its systematic crosscountrycomparison of M&A cases under uncertainty within the BRICS bloc. The findings contribute to the qualitativeliterature on corporate strategy in emerging markets by demonstrating how firms navigate uncertainty through governancechoices and ownership arrangements. The study also offers practical insights for policymakers and practitioners seekingto understand how institutional design influences the effectiveness of M&A activity under persistent uncertainty
